He was troubled with a health condition known as kidney failure (肾衰竭), and he had to receive dialysis (透析) treatment three times a week for a few years. On this day, he found himself at a medical center 30 miles from home for the second time in 24 hours. Bill has been living with kidney problems for over 20 years. He was on the waiting list for a transplant, but as there was no 9 found, he had to keep up with his dialysis treatment. Without a ride, Bill took an Uber to and from the medical center. Tim Letts, 31, was driving north to visit a friend. Even though the trip was out of his way, Tim decided to lend a hand, thinking that someone could probably need some help at a medical center. When Bill got into the car, Tim could see that the older man was 10 but cheerful. And as they set out on the 40-minute drive to Bill’s home, the pair started talking. “Bill really 11 up the car with positive energy (正能量),” says Tim, who shared with Bill that he was a proud Army veteran (退伍军人). Bill, who works in sales at a company that produces furniture, mentioned that in the past he’d 12 volunteering in his neighborhood, even serving as president of the city’s governing board. But he was doing 13 these days, he explained, because of the treatments. Then Bill mentioned that he was searching for a kidney donor (捐赠者). Tim joked that he’d be a good donor, given that he didn’t drink or smoke. Bill agreed, though he didn’t think much of it as they kept driving. Tim, however, couldn’t stop thinking about it. Tim believes in helping others, so donating a kidney “was something that was always on my mind,” he says. Also, he already liked and respected Bill. So, just before dropping Bill off, Tim said, “I’d like to see if I could give you a kidney.” Bill was shocked; he was shaking so hard; he could hardly write his name when they exchanged cellphone number. Once inside his home, he excitedly told his wife, “The Uber driver just 14 me his kidney!” After the excitement, Bill started feeling a bit less hopeful. He was touched by Tim’s offer, though he wondered if it was just a moment of strong feelings. But Tim was 15 to his word. He got in touch with Samuel just a few hours later, and by the next week, Tim had called the kidney transplant program. After months of checkups, the results were in: Tim was an ideal donor, and they were a perfect match. On December 7, 2021, 14 months after their 16 meeting, Bill and Tim had their surgeries (外科手术). It was a success. Today Bill is doing well, working full time, and enjoying time with his family—and no more dialysis. Tim has moved to Germany for work. He and Bill keep in touch and look forward to the day they can get together. Bill is especially excited. After all, he says, “Living donors are special people.” 9．A．match B．partner C．hope D．need 10．A．nervous B．angry C．excited D．tired 11．A．set B．lit C．took D．sped 12．A．watched B．minded C．enjoyed D．missed 13．A．better B．more C．worse D．less 14．A．brought B．showed C．wished D．offered 15．A．blind B．open C．true D．close 16．A．unknown B．unexpected C．successful D．important 三、阅读理解（每题2分，共28分） A ABeijing Opera is a form of traditional art in China. Our club is set up for fans and welcomes you to join us. We have invited some famous local actors to give acting classes. BPaper cutting sounds simple but is difficult to do. Bring red paper and learn the making of paper cutting. You can take home the paper cutting you make in class. CA discussion will be held in our reading club this weekend. The topic is about Journey to the West, one of the four great classic Chinese works. DA show of traditional Chinese ink painting will be held in the Art Museum this weekend. Many works of animals by famous artists will be on show. 17．Jeff is a Greek boy living in Beijing. He takes great interest in traditional Chinese opera. He hopes to take a class of the local opera. 18．Grace likes classic Chinese works. She has read the one about Monkey King since she came to China. 19．Helen loves Chinese paper cutting. She wants to make a Chinese “Fu” to put up on her window this Spring Festival. B When I was a girl growing up, I cannot once ever remember either my mum or my grandma wasting food. Anything we didn’t eat at one meal was leftovers (剩菜). I can remember my grandma making a huge pot of potatoes. We would all eat until we were full enough, but there were always about half of the potatoes leftover. A few days later, Grandma would take those potatoes out of the fridge, boil some noodles, add some vegetables and mix them all together. And I also remember when I watched my mum fry bacon (煎培根) for us in the mornings, she would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a bottle. Then she would use it later to add flavor to so many other dishes. I was an adult before I realized that potatoes didn’t actually taste like bacon! I learned their lessons well, and after I grew up, I tried to never waste food myself. I always planned the week’s meals ahead of time and only bought what was on my shopping list so that nothing went to waste. Every meal went into our stomachs and any leftovers were later eaten by me, my boys, my husband, or my dogs. To me, throwing food into the bin was just wrong. However, when it comes to living, there are no leftovers. Life is just like a feast. Each moment that you don’t live is lost forever. Life cannot be saved or stored. Each day is a fresh beginning. Live each moment of your life to the fullest, then. 20．The writer’s grandma used the leftover potatoes to ________. A．mix with noodles B．boil some eggs C．fry bacon D．make soup 21．Why did the potatoes cooked by the writer’s mum taste like bacon? A．Because she mixed the bacon with potatoes. B．Because she put potatoes into the leftovers. C．Because she was good at cooking. D．Because she poured the bacon oil into potatoes. 22．According to the passage, how did the writer save food in her way? A．By shopping more than needed. B．By throwing it into the litter bin. C．By following her mother’s shopping list. D．By planning the next week’s food. 23．What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A．It is never too old to learn. B．Eat to live, but not live to eat. C．Neither food nor life should be wasted. D．There is no such thing as a free lunch. C It seems obvious to say that being on the receiving end of kindness makes you feel good. But, while a kind act can’t provide you with any calories, it’s not simply a throwaway experience. When someone is surprisingly kind to you—a stranger holds open a door for you, or your coffee is on the house—the act triggers (触发) activity in the nucleus accumbens. It’s an area of the brain often referred to as the pleasure center. In 2021, more than 60,000 participants completed the Kindness Test questionnaire (调查问卷) online. The results showed that carrying out kind acts had benefits for well-being. Whether you’re giving or receiving kindness, you’re likely to feel better. People who regularly volunteer or donate money to charities talk of the warm glow they feel from their good deeds. Of all the kind acts, volunteering provides among the biggest benefits for giver and receiver alike. Studies showed that regular volunteering reduced the risk of dying by around a quarter. Kindness at home has impacts, too. One study of 59 women found that a hug with a partner lowered blood pressure and heart rate. Studies have also shown that simply noticing kindness and feeling gratitude (感谢) has positive impacts on the body, boosting the nervous system’s ability to lower a fast heart rate. Those who keep weekly gratitude journals have been found to enjoy improved measures of well-being. The more often they exercise, the more positive and physically healthier they are than those who don’t. Kindness doesn’t have to involve a lot of time, money or effort. Here are some simple ways you can practice being kinder that take next to no time at all: ·Praise a stranger for something. ·Make a cup of tea for a colleague. ·Buy a small gift for a friend or donate to a charity. ·Text a family member to let them know you love them. ·Send a thank-you email to someone you’ve worked with. Kindness is really important. It builds our empathy (同理心), develops deeper relationships and promotes good heart health. It’s contagious (有感染力的), too. By being kind, you’ll influence the people around you to be kinder, so they’ll also enjoy all the benefits. 24．The phrase “a throwaway experience” in the first paragraph most likely means something that is ________. A．highly memorable and meaningful B．easily forgotten or unimportant C．physically exhausting but rewarding D．expensive but worth the cost 25．What was one of the findings from the 2021 Kindness Test questionnaire? A．Most people prefer receiving kindness over giving it. B．Carrying out kind acts improved participants’ well-being. C．Kindness only benefits the receiver, not the giver. D．Kindness requires a lot of time and money. 26．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．The Science Behind Kindness and Its Benefits. B．How to Make Friends Through Kind Acts. C．The History of Kindness in Human Society. D．Why Money Can’t Buy Happiness. D Over the past decades, experts have done a lot of research to explore different ways to encourage children’s learning. People have paid more attention to how physical activity, separated from the learning activities, can improve children’s learning. However, the potential of combining physical activity and learning activities has been less discussed. Researchers from the University of Copenhagen conducted the Basketball Mathematics study at five Danish primary schools. The main purpose of it was to develop a learning activity that combines basketball and mathematics and examine how it might affect children’s motivation for mathematics. 756 children from 40 different classes participated in the project, where about half of them — once a week for six weeks had Basketball Mathematics during gym class, while the other half played basketball without mathematics. “During classes with Basketball Mathematics, the children had to collect numbers and perform calculations connected with various basketball exercises. An example could be counting how many times they could sink a basket from three meters away vs at a one-meter distance, and adding up the numbers. Both the math and basketball elements could be adjusted to suit the children’s levels,” explains Linn Damsgaard, a leading researcher. The results showed that children’s motivation for math combined with basketball was 16% higher compared to classroom math learning. Children also experienced a 14% increase in self-determination compared with classroom teaching. Meanwhile, Basketball Mathematics improved their math confidence. “We are planning to do research to examine whether the Basketball Mathematics model can strengthen performance in mathematics. Once we have the final results, we hope that they will inspire school teachers and principals to prioritize more physical activity in such subjects,” says Associate Professor Jacob Wienecke. 27．What was the main focus of the Basketball Mathematics study? A．To compare basketball skills with math abilities. B．To develop a combined basketball-math activity. C．To test children’s physical fitness levels. D．To examine traditional classroom teaching methods. 28．How did the Basketball Mathematics activities work? A．Children solved math problems after basketball games. B．Children used math calculations during basketball exercises. C．Teachers gave math tests during physical education classes. D．Students competed in math contests between basketball games. 29．What effect does basketball have on the participants? A．More motivation for exercise. B．More confidence in basketball. C．An increasing interest in learning math. D．Arise in determination to learn basketball. 30．How does Jacob expect the research to help educators? A．By building physical activity into teaching. B．By advertising the benefits of physical activity. C．By arousing students’ interest in more subjects. D．By exploring more ways to encourage children’s learning. 四、任务型阅读（31-33每题2分，34题4分，共10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 For most people, having things stolen feels like a wrong act. Robbie Pruitt admitted (承认) that he got mad when he found out someone took his mountain bike in September, 2019. But soon enough, his feelings changed. After letting go of his anger and sadness, he began to feel sorry for the thief instead. For Pruitt, a keen bicyclist, the first thing to do was replace his stolen bike. But when he went bike shopping, he found few available, which got him thinking: What if many people were buying bikes because buses weren’t running normally, and what if the person who’d taken his bike really needed transportation to get to work? With that thought in mind, Pruitt came up with a plan and posted (发帖) it on the community website. He offered to fix bikes free of charge for anyone who needed it. He also asked for unwanted bikes, which he would repair—again for free. And then he would donate them to folks who could truly use them but didn’t have the money to buy one. As soon as the post was published, Pruitt received thirty used bicycles. Then came more than 500 requests for detailed information. By the end of 2020, Pruitt had repaired more than 140 for donation or to be returned to their owners. Pruitt tries to give his donations to families that are truly struggling. He doesn’t just provide bikes—he also helps kids in his neighborhood to learn how to fix their own bikes. In addition to practical skills, Pruitt’s lessons teach teamwork, encourage self-worth, and promote feelings of community. Meanwhile, the kids have gained a sense of accomplishment. “It’s a really great experience for kids,” said a neighbor in an interview with the local newspaper. “Pruitt is certainly providing a service but it’s not just the bikes. It’s the relationships in the community. It’s the impact he can make on people.” 31．When did Pruitt find out someone took his mountain bike? ________________________________________________________________________________ 32．How many used bicycles did Pruitt receive right after his post? ________________________________________________________________________________ 33．What kind of families does Pruitt want to help with his donations? ________________________________________________________________________________ 34．Do you think Pruitt’s plan is helpful to the neighbors and the community? Why?

Anything we didn’t eat at one meal was leftovers (剩菜). I can remember my grandma making a huge pot of potatoes. We would all eat until we were full enough, but there were always about half of the potatoes leftover. A few days later, Grandma would take those potatoes out of the fridge, boil some noodles, add some vegetables and mix them all together. And I also remember when I watched my mum fry bacon (煎培根) for us in the mornings, she would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a bottle. Then she would use it later to add flavor to so many other dishes. I was an adult before I realized that potatoes didn’t actually taste like bacon! I learned their lessons well, and after I grew up, I tried to never waste food myself. I always planned the week’s meals ahead of time and only bought what was on my shopping list so that nothing went to waste. Every meal went into our stomachs and any leftovers were later eaten by me, my boys, my husband, or my dogs. To me, throwing food into the bin was just wrong. However, when it comes to living, there are no leftovers. Life is just like a feast. Each moment that you don’t live is lost forever. Life cannot be saved or stored. Each day is a fresh beginning. Live each moment of your life to the fullest, then. 20．The writer’s grandma used the leftover potatoes to ________. A．mix with noodles B．boil some eggs C．fry bacon D．make soup 21．Why did the potatoes cooked by the writer’s mum taste like bacon? A．Because she mixed the bacon with potatoes. B．Because she put potatoes into the leftovers. C．Because she was good at cooking. D．Because she poured the bacon oil into potatoes. 22．According to the passage, how did the writer save food in her way? A．By shopping more than needed. B．By throwing it into the litter bin. C．By following her mother’s shopping list. D．By planning the next week’s food. 23．What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A．It is never too old to learn. B．Eat to live, but not live to eat. C．Neither food nor life should be wasted. D．There is no such thing as a free lunch. 【答案】20．A 21．D 22．D 23．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲了作者回忆小时候妈妈和奶奶从不浪费食物的做法，自己长大后也效仿节约粮食，并由此感悟到生命如同盛宴，每一刻都不可浪费，应尽情活在当下。 20．细节理解题。根据“A few days later, Grandma would take those potatoes out of the fridge, boil some noodles, add some vegetables and mix them all together.”可知，奶奶用剩下的土豆和面条混合。故选A。 21．细节理解题。根据“she would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a bottle. Then she would use it later to add flavor to so many other dishes.”可知，妈妈把煎培根的油倒进土豆里，所以土豆有培根味。故选D。 22．细节理解题。根据“I always planned the week’s meals ahead of time and only bought what was on my shopping list so that nothing went to waste.”可知，作者通过提前规划下周的食物来节约粮食。故选D。 23．主旨大意题。根据“Life is just like a feast.

Life cannot be saved or stored.”可知，将不浪费食物与不浪费生命类比，强调食物和生命都不应被浪费。故选C。 C It seems obvious to say that being on the receiving end of kindness makes you feel good. But, while a kind act can’t provide you with any calories, it’s not simply a throwaway experience. When someone is surprisingly kind to you—a stranger holds open a door for you, or your coffee is on the house—the act triggers (触发) activity in the nucleus accumbens. It’s an area of the brain often referred to as the pleasure center. In 2021, more than 60,000 participants completed the Kindness Test questionnaire (调查问卷) online. The results showed that carrying out kind acts had benefits for well-being. Whether you’re giving or receiving kindness, you’re likely to feel better. People who regularly volunteer or donate money to charities talk of the warm glow they feel from their good deeds. Of all the kind acts, volunteering provides among the biggest benefits for giver and receiver alike. Studies showed that regular volunteering reduced the risk of dying by around a quarter. Kindness at home has impacts, too. One study of 59 women found that a hug with a partner lowered blood pressure and heart rate. Studies have also shown that simply noticing kindness and feeling gratitude (感谢) has positive impacts on the body, boosting the nervous system’s ability to lower a fast heart rate. Those who keep weekly gratitude journals have been found to enjoy improved measures of well-being. The more often they exercise, the more positive and physically healthier they are than those who don’t. Kindness doesn’t have to involve a lot of time, money or effort. Here are some simple ways you can practice being kinder that take next to no time at all: ·Praise a stranger for something. ·Make a cup of tea for a colleague. ·Buy a small gift for a friend or donate to a charity. ·Text a family member to let them know you love them. ·Send a thank-you email to someone you’ve worked with. Kindness is really important. It builds our empathy (同理心), develops deeper relationships and promotes good heart health. It’s contagious (有感染力的), too. By being kind, you’ll influence the people around you to be kinder, so they’ll also enjoy all the benefits. 24．The phrase “a throwaway experience” in the first paragraph most likely means something that is ________. A．highly memorable and meaningful B．easily forgotten or unimportant C．physically exhausting but rewarding D．expensive but worth the cost 25．What was one of the findings from the 2021 Kindness Test questionnaire? A．Most people prefer receiving kindness over giving it. B．Carrying out kind acts improved participants’ well-being. C．Kindness only benefits the receiver, not the giver. D．Kindness requires a lot of time and money. 26．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．The Science Behind Kindness and Its Benefits. B．How to Make Friends Through Kind Acts. C．The History of Kindness in Human Society. D．Why Money Can’t Buy Happiness. 【答案】24．B 25．B 26．A 【导语】本文主要介绍了善良的重要性，以善良待人，周围的人也会受到感染而变得善良起来。 24．词句猜测题。根据“But, while a kind act can’t provide you with any calories, it’s not simply a throwaway experience.”可知虽然善举不能给你带来任何热量，但它并不是一种可以随意丢弃的经历。“a throwaway experience”意为“一次不重要的经历”。故选B。 25．细节理解题。根据“The results showed that carrying out kind acts had benefits for well-being.”可知问卷的结果显示做好事能提高幸福指数。故选B。 26．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，调查问卷显示，做好事能提高幸福指数，并且善意和感激能对身体产生积极影响，选项A“善良背后的科学及其益处。”最合适。故选A。 D Over the past decades, experts have done a lot of research to explore different ways to encourage children’s learning. People have paid more attention to how physical activity, separated from the learning activities, can improve children’s learning. However, the potential of combining physical activity and learning activities has been less discussed. Researchers from the University of Copenhagen conducted the Basketball Mathematics study at five Danish primary schools. The main purpose of it was to develop a learning activity that combines basketball and mathematics and examine how it might affect children’s motivation for mathematics. 756 children from 40 different classes participated in the project, where about half of them — once a week for six weeks had Basketball Mathematics during gym class, while the other half played basketball without mathematics. “During classes with Basketball Mathematics, the children had to collect numbers and perform calculations connected with various basketball exercises. An example could be counting how many times they could sink a basket from three meters away vs at a one-meter distance, and adding up the numbers. Both the math and basketball elements could be adjusted to suit the children’s levels,” explains Linn Damsgaard, a leading researcher. The results showed that children’s motivation for math combined with basketball was 16% higher compared to classroom math learning. Children also experienced a 14% increase in self-determination compared with classroom teaching. Meanwhile, Basketball Mathematics improved their math confidence. “We are planning to do research to examine whether the Basketball Mathematics model can strengthen performance in mathematics. Once we have the final results, we hope that they will inspire school teachers and principals to prioritize more physical activity in such subjects,” says Associate Professor Jacob Wienecke. 27．What was the main focus of the Basketball Mathematics study? A．To compare basketball skills with math abilities. B．To develop a combined basketball-math activity. C．To test children’s physical fitness levels. D．To examine traditional classroom teaching methods. 28．How did the Basketball Mathematics activities work? A．Children solved math problems after basketball games. B．Children used math calculations during basketball exercises. C．Teachers gave math tests during physical education classes. D．Students competed in math contests between basketball games. 29．What effect does basketball have on the participants? A．More motivation for exercise. B．More confidence in basketball. C．An increasing interest in learning math. D．Arise in determination to learn basketball. 30．How does Jacob expect the research to help educators? A．By building physical activity into teaching. B．By advertising the benefits of physical activity. C．By arousing students’ interest in more subjects. D．By exploring more ways to encourage children’s learning. 【答案】27．B 28．B 29．C 30．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项将篮球与数学结合的研究，探讨了体育活动如何提高儿童对数学的兴趣和自信心。 27．细节理解题。根据第二段“The main purpose of it was to develop a learning activity that combines basketball and mathematics and examine how it might affect children’s motivation for mathematics.”可知，其主要目的是开发一种结合篮球和数学的学习活动，并研究它如何影响儿童的数学动机。故选B。 28．细节理解题。根据“During classes with Basketball Mathematics, the children had to collect numbers and perform calculations connected with various basketball exercises.”可知，在篮球数学课上，孩子们必须收集数字并进行与各种篮球练习相关的计算。故选B。 29．细节理解题。根据“The results showed that children’s motivation for math combined with basketball was 16% higher compared to classroom math learning.”可知，篮球提高了孩子们对数学的兴趣。故选C。 30．细节理解题。根据“‘Once we have the final results, we hope that they will inspire school teachers and principals to prioritize more physical activity in such subjects,’ says Associate Professor Jacob Wienecke.”可知，Jacob希望通过研究鼓励教师将体育活动融入教学。故选A。 四、任务型阅读（31-33每题2分，34题4分，共10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 For most people, having things stolen feels like a wrong act. Robbie Pruitt admitted (承认) that he got mad when he found out someone took his mountain bike in September, 2019. But soon enough, his feelings changed. After letting go of his anger and sadness, he began to feel sorry for the thief instead. For Pruitt, a keen bicyclist, the first thing to do was replace his stolen bike. But when he went bike shopping, he found few available, which got him thinking: What if many people were buying bikes because buses weren’t running normally, and what if the person who’d taken his bike really needed transportation to get to work? With that thought in mind, Pruitt came up with a plan and posted (发帖) it on the community website. He offered to fix bikes free of charge for anyone who needed it. He also asked for unwanted bikes, which he would repair—again for free. And then he would donate them to folks who could truly use them but didn’t have the money to buy one. As soon as the post was published, Pruitt received thirty used bicycles. Then came more than 500 requests for detailed information. By the end of 2020, Pruitt had repaired more than 140 for donation or to be returned to their owners. Pruitt tries to give his donations to families that are truly struggling. He doesn’t just provide bikes—he also helps kids in his neighborhood to learn how to fix their own bikes. In addition to practical skills, Pruitt’s lessons teach teamwork, encourage self-worth, and promote feelings of community. Meanwhile, the kids have gained a sense of accomplishment. “It’s a really great experience for kids,” said a neighbor in an interview with the local newspaper. “Pruitt is certainly providing a service but it’s not just the bikes. It’s the relationships in the community. It’s the impact he can make on people.” 31．When did Pruitt find out someone took his mountain bike? 32．How many used bicycles did Pruitt receive right after his post? 33．What kind of families does Pruitt want to help with his donations? 34．Do you think Pruitt’s plan is helpful to the neighbors and the community? Why? (Give at least two reasons) 【答案】31．In September, 2019. 32．Thirty /30. 33．Families that are truly struggling/Families who couldn’t afford bikes. 34．Yes. Because it provides free bikes to those in need and builds community relationships through teamwork and skill-sharing. (答案不唯一，但需基于原文给出至少两点理由) 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Robbie Pruitt在自行车被盗后，从愤怒转为同情，并发起免费修车和捐赠计划的故事，他的行动不仅帮助了经济困难的家庭，还促进了社区关系和孩子们的技能成长。 31．根据“Robbie Pruitt admitted (承认) that he got mad when he found out someone took his mountain bike in September, 2019.”可知，自行车被盗时间为2019年9月。故填In September, 2019. 32．根据“As soon as the post was published, Pruitt received thirty used bicycles.”可知，最初收到的自行车数量为30辆。故填Thirty /30. 33．根据“Pruitt tries to give his donations to families that are truly struggling.”可知，他的帮助对象是经济困难的家庭。故填Families that are truly struggling/Families who couldn’t afford bikes. 34．根据“And then he would donate them to folks who could truly use them but didn’t have the money to buy one.”以及“It’s the relationships in the community.

He was troubled with a health condition known as kidney failure (肾衰竭), and he had to receive dialysis (透析) treatment three times a week for a few years. On this day, he found himself at a medical center 30 miles from home for the second time in 24 hours. Bill has been living with kidney problems for over 20 years. He was on the waiting list for a transplant, but as there was no 9 found, he had to keep up with his dialysis treatment. Without a ride, Bill took an Uber to and from the medical center. Tim Letts, 31, was driving north to visit a friend. Even though the trip was out of his way, Tim decided to lend a hand, thinking that someone could probably need some help at a medical center. When Bill got into the car, Tim could see that the older man was 10 but cheerful. And as they set out on the 40-minute drive to Bill’s home, the pair started talking. “Bill really 11 up the car with positive energy (正能量),” says Tim, who shared with Bill that he was a proud Army veteran (退伍军人). Bill, who works in sales at a company that produces furniture, mentioned that in the past he’d 12 volunteering in his neighborhood, even serving as president of the city’s governing board. But he was doing 13 these days, he explained, because of the treatments. Then Bill mentioned that he was searching for a kidney donor (捐赠者). Tim joked that he’d be a good donor, given that he didn’t drink or smoke. Bill agreed, though he didn’t think much of it as they kept driving. Tim, however, couldn’t stop thinking about it. Tim believes in helping others, so donating a kidney “was something that was always on my mind,” he says. Also, he already liked and respected Bill. So, just before dropping Bill off, Tim said, “I’d like to see if I could give you a kidney.” Bill was shocked; he was shaking so hard; he could hardly write his name when they exchanged cellphone number. Once inside his home, he excitedly told his wife, “The Uber driver just 14 me his kidney!” After the excitement, Bill started feeling a bit less hopeful. He was touched by Tim’s offer, though he wondered if it was just a moment of strong feelings. But Tim was 15 to his word. He got in touch with Samuel just a few hours later, and by the next week, Tim had called the kidney transplant program. After months of checkups, the results were in: Tim was an ideal donor, and they were a perfect match. On December 7, 2021, 14 months after their 16 meeting, Bill and Tim had their surgeries (外科手术). It was a success. Today Bill is doing well, working full time, and enjoying time with his family—and no more dialysis. Tim has moved to Germany for work. He and Bill keep in touch and look forward to the day they can get together. Bill is especially excited. After all, he says, “Living donors are special people.” 9．A．match B．partner C．hope D．need 10．A．nervous B．angry C．excited D．tired 11．A．set B．lit C．took D．sped 12．A．watched B．minded C．enjoyed D．missed 13．A．better B．more C．worse D．less 14．A．brought B．showed C．wished D．offered 15．A．blind B．open C．true D．close 16．A．unknown B．unexpected C．successful D．important 三、阅读理解（每题2分，共28分） A ABeijing Opera is a form of traditional art in China.

Anything we didn’t eat at one meal was leftovers (剩菜). I can remember my grandma making a huge pot of potatoes. We would all eat until we were full enough, but there were always about half of the potatoes leftover. A few days later, Grandma would take those potatoes out of the fridge, boil some noodles, add some vegetables and mix them all together. And I also remember when I watched my mum fry bacon (煎培根) for us in the mornings, she would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a bottle. Then she would use it later to add flavor to so many other dishes. I was an adult before I realized that potatoes didn’t actually taste like bacon! I learned their lessons well, and after I grew up, I tried to never waste food myself. I always planned the week’s meals ahead of time and only bought what was on my shopping list so that nothing went to waste. Every meal went into our stomachs and any leftovers were later eaten by me, my boys, my husband, or my dogs. To me, throwing food into the bin was just wrong. However, when it comes to living, there are no leftovers. Life is just like a feast. Each moment that you don’t live is lost forever. Life cannot be saved or stored. Each day is a fresh beginning. Live each moment of your life to the fullest, then. 20．The writer’s grandma used the leftover potatoes to ________. A．mix with noodles B．boil some eggs C．fry bacon D．make soup 21．Why did the potatoes cooked by the writer’s mum taste like bacon? A．Because she mixed the bacon with potatoes. B．Because she put potatoes into the leftovers. C．Because she was good at cooking. D．Because she poured the bacon oil into potatoes. 22．According to the passage, how did the writer save food in her way? A．By shopping more than needed. B．By throwing it into the litter bin. C．By following her mother’s shopping list. D．By planning the next week’s food. 23．What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A．It is never too old to learn. B．Eat to live, but not live to eat. C．Neither food nor life should be wasted. D．There is no such thing as a free lunch. C It seems obvious to say that being on the receiving end of kindness makes you feel good. But, while a kind act can’t provide you with any calories, it’s not simply a throwaway experience. When someone is surprisingly kind to you—a stranger holds open a door for you, or your coffee is on the house—the act triggers (触发) activity in the nucleus accumbens. It’s an area of the brain often referred to as the pleasure center. In 2021, more than 60,000 participants completed the Kindness Test questionnaire (调查问卷) online. The results showed that carrying out kind acts had benefits for well-being. Whether you’re giving or receiving kindness, you’re likely to feel better. People who regularly volunteer or donate money to charities talk of the warm glow they feel from their good deeds. Of all the kind acts, volunteering provides among the biggest benefits for giver and receiver alike. Studies showed that regular volunteering reduced the risk of dying by around a quarter. Kindness at home has impacts, too. One study of 59 women found that a hug with a partner lowered blood pressure and heart rate. Studies have also shown that simply noticing kindness and feeling gratitude (感谢) has positive impacts on the body, boosting the nervous system’s ability to lower a fast heart rate. Those who keep weekly gratitude journals have been found to enjoy improved measures of well-being. The more often they exercise, the more positive and physically healthier they are than those who don’t. Kindness doesn’t have to involve a lot of time, money or effort. Here are some simple ways you can practice being kinder that take next to no time at all: ·Praise a stranger for something. ·Make a cup of tea for a colleague. ·Buy a small gift for a friend or donate to a charity. ·Text a family member to let them know you love them. ·Send a thank-you email to someone you’ve worked with. Kindness is really important. It builds our empathy (同理心), develops deeper relationships and promotes good heart health. It’s contagious (有感染力的), too. By being kind, you’ll influence the people around you to be kinder, so they’ll also enjoy all the benefits. 24．The phrase “a throwaway experience” in the first paragraph most likely means something that is ________. A．highly memorable and meaningful B．easily forgotten or unimportant C．physically exhausting but rewarding D．expensive but worth the cost 25．What was one of the findings from the 2021 Kindness Test questionnaire? A．Most people prefer receiving kindness over giving it. B．Carrying out kind acts improved participants’ well-being. C．Kindness only benefits the receiver, not the giver. D．Kindness requires a lot of time and money. 26．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．The Science Behind Kindness and Its Benefits. B．How to Make Friends Through Kind Acts. C．The History of Kindness in Human Society. D．Why Money Can’t Buy Happiness. D Over the past decades, experts have done a lot of research to explore different ways to encourage children’s learning. People have paid more attention to how physical activity, separated from the learning activities, can improve children’s learning. However, the potential of combining physical activity and learning activities has been less discussed. Researchers from the University of Copenhagen conducted the Basketball Mathematics study at five Danish primary schools. The main purpose of it was to develop a learning activity that combines basketball and mathematics and examine how it might affect children’s motivation for mathematics. 756 children from 40 different classes participated in the project, where about half of them — once a week for six weeks had Basketball Mathematics during gym class, while the other half played basketball without mathematics. “During classes with Basketball Mathematics, the children had to collect numbers and perform calculations connected with various basketball exercises. An example could be counting how many times they could sink a basket from three meters away vs at a one-meter distance, and adding up the numbers. Both the math and basketball elements could be adjusted to suit the children’s levels,” explains Linn Damsgaard, a leading researcher. The results showed that children’s motivation for math combined with basketball was 16% higher compared to classroom math learning. Children also experienced a 14% increase in self-determination compared with classroom teaching. Meanwhile, Basketball Mathematics improved their math confidence. “We are planning to do research to examine whether the Basketball Mathematics model can strengthen performance in mathematics. Once we have the final results, we hope that they will inspire school teachers and principals to prioritize more physical activity in such subjects,” says Associate Professor Jacob Wienecke. 27．What was the main focus of the Basketball Mathematics study? A．To compare basketball skills with math abilities. B．To develop a combined basketball-math activity. C．To test children’s physical fitness levels. D．To examine traditional classroom teaching methods. 28．How did the Basketball Mathematics activities work? A．Children solved math problems after basketball games. B．Children used math calculations during basketball exercises. C．Teachers gave math tests during physical education classes. D．Students competed in math contests between basketball games. 29．What effect does basketball have on the participants? A．More motivation for exercise. B．More confidence in basketball. C．An increasing interest in learning math. D．Arise in determination to learn basketball. 30．How does Jacob expect the research to help educators? A．By building physical activity into teaching. B．By advertising the benefits of physical activity. C．By arousing students’ interest in more subjects. D．By exploring more ways to encourage children’s learning. 四、任务型阅读（31-33每题2分，34题4分，共10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 For most people, having things stolen feels like a wrong act. Robbie Pruitt admitted (承认) that he got mad when he found out someone took his mountain bike in September, 2019. But soon enough, his feelings changed. After letting go of his anger and sadness, he began to feel sorry for the thief instead. For Pruitt, a keen bicyclist, the first thing to do was replace his stolen bike. But when he went bike shopping, he found few available, which got him thinking: What if many people were buying bikes because buses weren’t running normally, and what if the person who’d taken his bike really needed transportation to get to work? With that thought in mind, Pruitt came up with a plan and posted (发帖) it on the community website. He offered to fix bikes free of charge for anyone who needed it. He also asked for unwanted bikes, which he would repair—again for free. And then he would donate them to folks who could truly use them but didn’t have the money to buy one. As soon as the post was published, Pruitt received thirty used bicycles. Then came more than 500 requests for detailed information. By the end of 2020, Pruitt had repaired more than 140 for donation or to be returned to their owners. Pruitt tries to give his donations to families that are truly struggling. He doesn’t just provide bikes—he also helps kids in his neighborhood to learn how to fix their own bikes. In addition to practical skills, Pruitt’s lessons teach teamwork, encourage self-worth, and promote feelings of community. Meanwhile, the kids have gained a sense of accomplishment. “It’s a really great experience for kids,” said a neighbor in an interview with the local newspaper. “Pruitt is certainly providing a service but it’s not just the bikes. It’s the relationships in the community. It’s the impact he can make on people.” 31．When did Pruitt find out someone took his mountain bike? 32．How many used bicycles did Pruitt receive right after his post? 33．What kind of families does Pruitt want to help with his donations? 34．Do you think Pruitt’s plan is helpful to the neighbors and the community? Why? (Give at least two reasons) 五、书面表达（35、36题任选其一完成，每题10分） 35．参与家务劳动是每个家庭成员应尽的责任。假如你是李华，你的英国笔友Tom想了解你承担家务的情况。请结合自身经历，谈谈你平时承担的家务劳动，以及这些劳动经历为你和家庭带来的积极影响。 提示词语：make the bed, clean the room, organized, life skills, happy 提示问题： ● What chores do you usually do at home? ● How does doing chores benefit you and your family?
